5.2”

Where in the WORLD are you?  

2.75”  

Gorgous, but 2.75”   Even here I can’t get a Jackpot.  Someone probably pulled 4”.  

About to go drive out.  

Ray You have 2” of Cement!?!?  How Lucky!!  We haven’t had snow here for Days.  

And I have not seen it Snow more than 0.75” in a storm at home for 1 year.  1 YEAR!!  Missed every storm over an inch, and the 2.5” I saw was in Detroit in November with their first snow.  

WHAT THE HECK??  

I just took took a break from the Daytona 500 and noticed I’m in a Winter Storm Warning??  It’s like my Own personal Central SNE WSW!!  

Just looked it up the old way on that site.  The PVD Data is completely screwed up through that period.  Doesn't get so many storms right.  Yikes.  How could some of the most epic winters be messed up like this?  But the MORE alarming thing is the Specific storms pages that used to exist back to the 1997-1998 season the NWS Boston site.  One could just add up all of those and then just be missing really smaller storms where the NWS doesn't take data.  Those HAVE TO BE Somewhere at the NWS.  It's not like they deleted them.....

Hey Cory!!

Could this be the Utah site you were looking for?  https://climate.usu.edu/mapGUI//mapGUI.php

This is through the University of Utah.  Looks like you can find data through the country, though.  Hope this works.  I can't tell you what happened to the old data on the BOX site.

--Turtle

Mmmmm why does the site look basically down?  Or at least No where as easy to navigate as before.....    And No one seems to know what happened with the specific snow storm data, Or the missing 1996-2003 data either.  

I'm gone on the 17th.    For at least 2 weeks, and likely after the Grammy's.  UNLESS there's a biggy coming, then I come home, except from January 21-28.  NO Way I can come home during that.  

Oh Wait!  What happened with this?  

ALSO - What happened to this??  https://www.weather.gov/box/pastevents#  - I used to be able to go looks at the Full charts of data for Snowstorms going back to 1997.  Now it's only got info from January 2009????  

Need some help - NOAA got rid of PVD's Seasonal, Monthly, Daily Data for 1994-1995  -  2002-2003 a few years ago (because they didn't like how they acquired the data, and there was questions about it (which is redonkulous)).  Does anyone HAVE that data around? 

I was also looking for the old UTAH Snow Page, but I lost my bookmarks recently and can't find it.  Do you guys have it?  It used to have TONS of data for Every Day for SO many sites around the country.  

21st is good.  But we need some action on here cause I don't feel like it's happening.  I get back on the 18th.  

21st is the Only one that works for me there.  And I'd bring the Accordion!

I love this one. It was in the long duration storm in 2015 IIRC. Look at those fooking gloves and lights.   

 

 

How theheck are you guys so smart that you remember exactly what storm this is?  I can do that from my own crazy details but god knows what storm this was for this video lol, I just did it for TV!  

I went Full Michael Jackson here.  

Going through the Comma Head Now on 89 heading to Lebanon!  Roads are bad and it's intense!!!!

The airmass was over performing all day too...so that also could have been a clue to anyone still really gun shy.

 

ORH not only set their record low max for the date...it was the coldest max temp on record pre-11/20. The most impressive part of it, is it was achieved without precip falling.

THOSE are Incredible Stats.  

Looks like Ray's Forecast is off to a Good start.  Especially since when the first storm outperforms... it's usually a good sign.  IE November 2004 with that 6" storm.  

I walked around a park in Harvard here in Cambridge, and NO, it wasn't 3"... it was 3" on many surfaces, but the Real total was 5" in 3.5 hours!  And Wet snow.  

5.5" now in 4 hours, 1" in last hour.  POURING Snow.  

I am in Cambridge, MA tonight as I head with my violinist up to Vermont Tomorrow.  

3" in 3 hours!!  Wooo!  POURING Snow!  

I'm Under a Winter Storm Warning????  WHAT HAPPENED????  Must have been HUGE positive trends overnight??

You went to the wrong parties apparently.

I'm on a plane flying back home from Michigan, and laughed out loud in the cabin at this.

Good News: I already saw my First Snow and First Snowfall Accumulation in Lansing, Michigan on Monday, AND will be in Lebanon, VT Friday!  Hoping they get a Foot!

Just saw a live Facebook video from sleeping giant state park in Hamden. Massive tree damage there.

What in Ever Living Hell!?  Is that a Downdraft or Tornado path section?  Holy Jesus.  So sad.  

That's my Snowstorm Present for Ray haha!  

Did he say Ray's Name?  I gave bomb the whole name.  

Pete Bouchard answered my messages about Ray (WHY does this only allow for a 92KB picture!?  Ugh.  I'll copy and paste) - 

"Ahh...the old school measuring method. According to the NWS Chat boards, they thought it was overdone.  Eric Fisher presumed he measured the snow from the previous storm? (Don't know where he got that info.) I asked on the board whether they would accept it, and they said since he wasn't Skywarn, they would omit it. Then it was posted again this morning before they again struck it from the list.  Honestly, I can see how he could get 31. It's a tried and true method! And the RIGHT way to measure snowfall."  

Has everyone seed Ray's amount posted in the 9am NWS report?  They put it in!  31.0", #1!  You Jackpotted a major one!  

But Ray - Get your Spotter Training / Number and then they'll believe you more!  

If I could upload more than 0.09MB on this darn thing I'd show you Mark Searles ALSO is calling Ray's 30" BS.
